Featuring the original English release and a new Khmer version in this 2-disc collector's edition (for home and personal use only). "The Killing Fields of Dr. Haing S. Ngor" chronicles the life, times, and murder of Dr. Ngor, a Cambodian genocide survivor and Oscar-winning actor. When Ngor was forced into slave labor by the Khmer Rouge, little did he know he would escape four years of torture and recreate his harrowing experiences in a film that would earn him an Academy Award. For the Cambodian-Chinese doctor, “Nothing has shaped my life as much as surviving the Pol Pot regime. I am a survivor of the Cambodian holocaust. That’s who I am.” And little did anyone know that some twenty years later, Dr. Ngor would be gunned down in a Los Angeles Chinatown alley. How could it be that he would survive the tyranny of the Khmer Rouge, only to be murdered by gangbangers in America? Directed by Oscar-nominated and triple-Sundance award-winning filmmaker Arthur Dong, "The Killing Fields of Dr. Haing S. Ngor" follows the journey of a survivor who dedicated his life to seeking justice for his people. Clips from the iconic movie, "The Killing Fields," combine Hollywood glamour with history and personal storytelling. Animation is fused with the spoken word, interlacing a rare palette of archival material anchored by an adaptation of Dr. Ngor’s inspiring autobiography that chronicles an enduring love for his wife. With 45 minutes of bonus features, including: the official trailer; music video with Bochan performing the love song from the film; an American Refugee Committee video hosted by Dr. Ngor; and historic U.S. congressional hearings on Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge.
